Ruptured Uterus

Rupture uterus is a rare and often catastrophic condition. It is associated with a high incidence of fetal and maternal mortality and morbidity. Our objective in this study is to determine incidence, etiology, trend, management, maternal and fetal outcome of uterine rupture in Faridpur Medical College Hospital. This is a prospective cross-sectional study  of patients with ruptured uterus from the period of January 2011 to December 2011 admitted at Faridpur Medical College Hospital. All the cases of ruptured uterus who were either admitted with uterine rupture or who developed it  in hospital were included in the study. Patients having ruptured uterus due to congenital anomaly were excluded from  the study. Patients were initially assessed in labour ward, relevant sociodemographic data, previous antenatal and  surgical history recorded. Ways of management, maternal and fetal outcome were taken for analysis. There were 30 cases of ruptured uterus out of total 3606 deliveries (including 1809 caesarian sections) over a one year time period, with a prevalence of 0.83%. The most common age group was 21-30 years. A majority of patients 16(53.3%) were cases of unscarred uterus presenting with rupture; the common cause of rupture in scarred uterus was injudicious use of oxytocin (13,43.33%). Proper antenatal care, appropriate counseling of patients with history of previous caesarian section for hospital delivery, training of skilled birth attendant can reduce mortality and morbidity due to rupture uterus.

Vesicovaginal Fistulas

This cross sectional study was carried out on hundred patients of vesicovaginal fistula who were admitted and underwent surgical treatment in Dhaka Medical college Hospital (DMCH), Dhaka, during the period of January, 2001 to June, 2003. The aim of this study was to obtain the outcome of the different methods of repair of different types of vesicovaginal fistula. An in-depth interview was taken from patients by using an open ended questionnaire. Necessary information about the procedure applied, together with results of operation were recorded in the data sheet. The result of this study showed that the anatomical success in closure of fistula occurred in 94% cases. In 38% of cases the size of the fistula were small in size, in 49% cases location were at the Junction of bladder neck, 78% of cases experienced no postoperative complications. Route of operation were vaginal in 84% cases. Previous attempt of repair were in 62% cases whereas in 38% women had history of operation. Obstetric vesicovaginal fistula is a curable condition. The success rate has been increased over time. More complicated cases which have been failed in previous attempts of repair are being referred. Most of the unsuccessful repair were bad cases (2%). So more training and experience of surgeons for repair of fistulas, employing modified technique wherever applicable can improve the result.

Background: Postdated pregnancy complicates about 10% of all gestation and is associated with an increase in perinatal mortality and morbidity. This study was designed to observe fetal as well as maternal outcome in the management of postdated pregnancies admitted into Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. Methods: The study was carried out from July 2008 to June 2010. 100 cases of postdated pregnancies were included. Patients’ age, occupation, parity, mode of delivery, the indication of LUCS, fetal & maternal outcomes were recorded in a predesigned questionnaire. Results were expressed as Mean± SD, actual number and percentage of total where applicable. Results: Mean age (±SD) was 21.3 (±5.32) years. 90% were housewives, 5% were in service and 5% were in other occupations. 53% were nullipara, 21% para-2, 18% were para-3, 8% were para-4.57% of the study patients underwent caesarean section and 43% underwent vaginal delivery. Fetal distress (n=34), non-progression of labour (n=19), cord prolapse (n=1) & CPD (n=3) were the causes of LUCS. Regarding fetal outcome, healthy babies were 76%, meconium aspiration 13%, birth asphyxia 11%. Among birth asphyxia, neonatal death was 1% & still born was 2%. Maternal complications at delivery were tear in the genital tract 8%, PPH 5% & wound infection in 4% cases. Conclusion: Here, still-birth rate was 2% (normally about 1 in 3000 deliveries) and perinatal mortality rate is 3% (normally about 2-3 in 1000 deliveries). So, patients should be encouraged to attend regular antenatal check up to prevent postdated pregnancy and its complications. TAJ 2018; 31(2): 50-53

Background: Globally there has been increased medicalization of pregnancy due to advances in technology. Ultrasonography examination during pregnancy has become an integral part of antenatal care throughout the world with advanced health care services.Methods: The cross-sectional study was conducted in pregnant women attending the ANC clinic of Obstetric department of D. Y. Patil Medical College Hospital, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, India for routine check up to know the awareness about ultrasonography among them. The study included 290 pregnant women. All were explained the purpose of study and assured confidentiality. Data has been collected from willing participants using pre-tested questionnaire in June-August 2015.Results: The study shows literacy was 87.6%, pregnancy above 20 years age 98.97% and most of them unskilled (83.4%), majority of middle social class (89%). Many (72.41%) pregnant women considered USG use to detect fetal anomalies while 27.93% considered for sex detection. Majority (93.1%) done USG in this pregnancy, of that more (43.45 %) in second trimester and mainly advised by doctors (91.03%). Nearly half of them (50.69%) considered its expensive procedure, 69.31% spent 200/- to 500/- rupees per USG, in spite 94.83% of them would recommend other pregnant women to undergo USG in pregnancy. 50.69%% of them opined it should be done twice in pregnancy. Almost 94.83% considered USG as safe and beneficial.Conclusions: Awareness regarding the uses of Ultrasonography during pregnancy and attitude towards it was found to be average. There is need to create more awareness in community about PCPNT act and its provisions. Also there is need of counselling about the safety, utility and frequency of USG during pregnancy to avoid misuse.

Background: Skeletal manifestations associated with ALL in children are common findings with a high prevalence (11.6 to 50%). The most common skeletal manifestations are bone pain, arthritis, failure to use an extremity as well as other complaints mimicking orthopedic condition such as osteomyelitis. The objective of this study is to determine the rate of skeletal manifestations commonly present in ALL to reduce mortality and morbidity. Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in the department of Pediatrics in Dhaka medical college Hospital, BSMMU and Dhaka Shishu (Children) Hospital between January 2010 to July 2010. Total Fifty patients of ALL were Selected consecutively from the study population. At first, we assessed skeletal manifestations like bone pain, arthritis, radiological findings present or not in ALL. Then specify the rate of bone pain, arthritis, radiological findings of ALL patients. Results: After six months 35 patients were present with skeletal manifestations. Among them 20 patients, presented with bone pain,10 patients presented with arthritis and 5 patients presented with radiological manifestations. Out of 5 patients 3 patients had soft tissue swelling 1 patient had periarticular osteoporosis and 1 patient had joint effusion in x-ray findings. Conclusion: Skeletal manifestations may be the only presentation in ALL. Bangladesh J Child Health 2019; VOL 43 (2) :102-105
